Canadian singer-songwriter Allison Russell tearfully accepted the album of the year award for her debut solo record “Outside Child” at the Americana Honors and Awards. Russell said that music had saved her after surviving an abusive childhood.
Billy Strings was not able to accept in person, so the award for artist of the year was accepted by dobro and steel guitar player Jerry Douglas. Sierra Ferrell won for emerging artist of the year.
Husband and wife duo War and Treaty, made up of Tanya and Michael Trotter, won over the audience with their soulful duet “That’s How Love is Made,” and later won duo/group of the year. “I feel the spirit,” Bell told the crowd. “I don’t have the words in my grasp to express how I feel right now and how Americana music is making me feel.”
“If you don’t have a great band, it’s no fun,” Isaak said, who praised his band during his acceptance speech.
